A player at a basketball camp set a goal to make 55% if his shots. If he has 120 attempts, how many shots would he need to make in order to reach his goal?

Answer 1

Answer: 66

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a player at a basketball camp set a goal to make 55% if his shots and that he has 120 attempts.

The number of shots that he would he need to make in order to reach his goal will be 55% of 120. This will be:

= 55% × 120

= 55/100 × 120

= 0.55 × 120

= 66

He would need to make 66 shots
